It's unfortunate that they used the larger font because the words are horribly crowded. "PREPAREFORHUMANS" and "COLLECTROCK"?I would expect this from the Malaysian knock-off people (or some of the more recent US-based guys making every kind of replica lately). </TD></TR><TR bgcolor="#494949"><TD valign=top>Kevin T.

The latter was available to mission team members.</TD></TR><TR bgcolor="#333333"><TD valign=top>Paul J. Brennan</TD><TD>Got it, thanks Robert. </TD></TR></TABLE></td></tr></table>
